impact gun is sound. The best I've ever used. Gun has more power than any other quarter inch impact driver I have ever used. This impact continuously brakes socket adapters because of the power it does better than my half inch air impact.

Works great. The head is alittle larger diameter than I expected. I use a 14 volt contractor grade yellow one doing Camp Miant. and construction that is smaller and probably more rugged but this one has much more power. I used it to assemble a new wheelbarrow with a 1/2" socket in the driver and stripped the threads on a couple 5/16" bolts before I realized.A larger battery that lasted longer may be nice but it works great so far and I like the warrenty. A little larger better quality case might be nice. I like to store bits etc in the case with the drill.

I use my 18v version of the same tool for spinning lugs on and off of car/truck wheels. However, I break and finish tightening the lugs with a breaker bar. Although the torque rating on the tool (120 ft lbs) should be able to break those lugs, my experience is that it usually won't without a good deal of stress on the tool. Hence, likely why the other reviewer suggests against the practice.

My suggestion: go to Harbor Freight and get a 25" (1/2" drive) breaker bar when then go on sale (about $10) and have it handy for the breaking and final tightening of the lugs. Use the impact driver for spinning the lugs on and off. For me, I have found this setup is faster than the total process of pulling out the air hose and air impact driver.

New Vs. Reconditioned

What's the difference between New and Factory-Reconditioned?

Factory-Reconditioned products have been returned to the manufacturer and are restored to like-new operating condition; they go through a rigorous testing and inspection process. Plus, they offer a significant savings vs. new.

Reconditioned products may have minor cosmetic blemishes or scratches that do not affect item performance.

Reconditioned products may not come with all of the consumables the new version comes with (bits, sanding pads/papers, cases, etc.).

Both come with a manufacturer warranty and are covered by our Money Back Guarantee; New is 30 days, Reconditioned is 60 days.
